On-surface synthesis by atomic manipulation studied with AFM — •Leo Gross — IBM Research - Zurich, Säumerstr. 4, 8003 Rüschlikon, Switzerland

Elusive molecules can be created using atomic manipulation with a combined atomic force/scanning tunneling microscope (AFM/STM). Molecules that are highly reactive and short-lived under ambient conditions can be stabilized at low temperature on inert surfaces. Employing high-resolution AFM with functionalized tips provides insights into the structure, geometry, aromaticity and bond orders of the molecules created and into the reactions performed [1].

We created radicals, diradicals [2], non-Kekulé molecules [3], anti-aromatics [4], and polyynes [5] and studied their structural and electronic properties. We recently showed that the reorganization energy of a molecule on an insulator can be determined [6]. In addition, we expanded the toolbox for the synthesis of molecules by atomic manipulation, demonstrating reversible cyclisation reactions [2], skeletal rearrangements [5] and controlled reactions on insulating substrates by electron attachment/detachment [7].
